Ilha Grande lies in the Costa Verde (Green Coast) region, and is within the largest remaining covered area of the Atlantic Rainforest in Brazil.

The Ilha Grande day hiking tour will begin when your bilingual guide picks you up from your hotel where you will then receive a short briefing. Located approximately 3 hours south of Rio de Janeiro you will reach Ilha Grande by first travelling by car to Conceição do Jacarei followed by a boat trip to the village of Abraão.
